Scottish Parliament

Each person in Scotland is represented by eight MSPs: one for their constituency and seven for the larger region in which they live. Depending on your event, you can choose to invite only MSPs from a particular political party or ones that you’ve heard of locally or ones that you know have a keen interest in a particular subject.

To find your MSP, go to: http://www.scottish.parliament.uk/msps.aspx – by entering your postcode, you will get a list of all the MSPs, including their email addresses, as well as their biographies mentioning any particular interests, membership of cross-party groups etc.

UK Parliament
